I would appreciate it if you would share this post:
Yes, we are starting our new year with sicknesses running through our house. We had plans to go to a friends house for New Years Eve, but Paulie started getting sick Saturday night. Sunday he was worse and I was starting to feel sick myself, so we knew we would have to cancel for Monday night. Which turned out to be a good thing because by Monday morning I was worse and Paul was sick too, though Paulie was feeling better.
It was a quiet night but fun still the same. We played some Xbox, watched some movies and played a game of scrabble (which Paul won ). We made it until midnight and rang in the new year with hugs and kisses all around. We stayed up a bit longer, but we were all in bed by 1:00am. It was a bummer that we werenāt feeling the best and that we couldnāt go to our friends house, but we had a blessed time anyway. It was a blessing to be with family and enjoy each others company. Iām also blessed that we werenāt so sick that we couldnāt stay up and count down to the new year.
Iām still not feeling the best today, dealing with a bad sinus headache, and Paul had to go to work even though heās not feeling the best either. But Iām thankful that Paulie is feeling better, just a cough and Sarah doesnāt seem to have caught this bug. I didnāt get any photos taken last night, just wasnāt on my mind. I do hope to get out in the snow when Iām feeling better and get some nice shots.
Iāve also been working on my afghan though not as much as I would like. All I feel like doing is either read or work on my afghan and with a sinus headache itās hard to do either one for any length of time. But I am resting and drinking lots of fluids, so Iām hoping that by tomorrow the headache is at least gone. Because tomorrow starts us back on a normal routine. School will start again, the house will need cleaning, the laundry will need to be done and the list goes on. And I wouldnāt mind doing any of those things, as long as this headache goes away.

Hope you feel better soon, Happy New Year!
Iām so sorry you are all so sick. Hopefully this will be its final blow and you will all get feeling great soon. The headache was the worse for Carrie too. Seems thats the hardest and then the cough that lingers. But like you say, a lot of fluids and rest and hopefully health will return. We made it to midnight but didnāt do anything. And right at midnight we said Happy New Year and that was it, lights out. And Carrie fell asleep and Jessi couldnāt go to Danās because she has a upper resparatory infection ( not the right spelling) anyway on antibiotics and feel terrible. Danās family seems fine. Well Iām getting house back in order. Oh need the directions for that little holder you made for me and what directions did you use for the dish cloths? I think its a little different then what I usually do. Get well. Iāll be praying Love
Hope your household is on the mend soon. My husband has been sick also. So far, neither ds nor I have caught it. Iām hoping it stays that way. Your new yearās eve sounds nice. Ours was an early one. Back to school tomorrow for us as well. Take care, Heather
Hope you are feeling better soon. I think that is a good idea about wash cloths. I should pick up some yarnā¦
I think Jeannie was right; weāre all sharing a virus. Hah, that made me laugh.
I hope youāre well now; Iām still coughing but not as badly as before, and the kids are not well yet either. We started back on our normal routine yesterday and Iād forgotten how much work we normally do!
Enjoy the coziness of winter, and rest lots!
Well, despite the fact that you were ill, it sounds like you had a pretty good New Year celebration. I was sick during the New Year as well, but my husband and I were still able to have some enjoyment.
I hope that youāre feeling better soon. Hopefully, youāll show us your afghan when itās completed.
Blessings!
